Fantastic location, fantastic developer

Of the numerous developers we visited, Millgate very clearly outperformed the rest both in design/quality of the property and in sales/customer service. The design of the property included multiple unique features such as wider toilets on the ground floor, underfloor heating and wall to ceiling mirrors whilst the quality outshone all of the other property viewings we had seen. The customer service team were very polite and attentive during our customer journey even after purchase.

Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:

This gorgeous hybrid-working commuter location has plenty of green space for any length of walk and has multiple nearby town/cities including Wokingham, Reading, Guildford, Henley on Thames, Marlow and Bracknell.

Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:

I wish I knew more about the wider development timeline – Arborfield Green is in the later stages of it’s development including plans for a town centre.

What is the best feature of your home:

Underfloor heating connected to different thermostats for localised climates around the property.

A good house on a lovely estate but many issues needing to be corrected after purchase

The house design is excellent but due to poor management of contractors during building about 50 instances/ faults re boiler, plumbing, electrical installations have had to be corrected. Millgate customer service has been inadequate to get speedy resolutions of problems. Millgate estate management of the parkland and trees has been poor( but now being corrected) before handover to ManagingAgents

Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:

Development of houses on parkland and woods.very convenient for Oxford, Abingdon. Transport needed.bin collections good. Some traffic noise from A 420

Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:

Get any faults in/ out of the house repaired as rapidly as possible.

How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:

Positively but slowly. Customer service only claims response 24 /48 hours from issues raised. Often takes longer and slow follow up with contractors to attend.

Happy buyer and is enjoying the quieter life here of the country side

Happy with the developers and the design of the development as a whole. It is still yet to complete so we are still waiting to see the final result of nearby other homes.
The parking space for the front driveways could be made slightly bigger to allow more space for cars. Perhaps less green at the front.

Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:

Really happy with the area. Shops and supermarkets are nearby as well as the local train station so convenient to get into London. Nearby independent schools quite close to our door step. Plenty of parking available, although the drive way could be made better for more cars to park.

Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:

Asked more questions about the design aspects

How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:

They have been ok. Some issues could have been dealt with much faster and there are some areas where the after care can be improved upon

Very pleasant, well built houses with great design features

Poor security site ideally needs gates either to the whole site or to each phase. There have been some Burglars in the last year whilst has resulted in our neighbours car being stolen. Gates would also ensure the safety of children by slowing down deliver drivers

Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:

No car traffic noise but occasional trains pass but not significant sound. Friendly neighbours. Good parking for visitors

Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:

Had a very detailed handover

How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:

Majority but can be slow and requires reminders to chase things up
